Mae Frisbie Stringer was 83 when she died in her Pulaski County, Kentucky home on December 2, 1988. Her death was long recorded as the result of a house fire on Ringgold Road, and for twenty-two years that explanation stood.

In 2010 the case was revisited after Michael Andrew Abner was arrested in connection with other killings. Abner admitted he had entered Stringer’s home, strangled her, and then set the house on fire to conceal the crime. His confession also linked him to another elderly victim, Mamie Mercer, who had been murdered in 1983.

Abner was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Does anyone have memories of Ringgold Road or recollections about Mae Stringer that could shed light on her last days?
